Miss Gannon, Sec y Detroit Amateur
Art Association, tells young women what to
do to avoid pain- and suffering caused by
female troubles.
" DEAR MRS. PINKHAM :-I can conscientiously recommend Lydia E.
Pmkhani's Vegetable Compound to those of my sisters suffering with
female weakness and the troubles which so often befall women. I suf
fered for months with general weakness, and felt so weary that I had
nard work to keep up. I had shooting pains, and was utterly miserable.
In my distress I was advised to use Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetablo
Compound, and it was a red letter day to me when I took the first dose,
for at that time my restoration began. In sis weeks I was a changed
woman, perfectly in every respect. I felt so elated and happy that
I want all women who suffer to get well as I did."-3?iss G?ILA GANNON,
uo9 Jones St., introit, Mich., Secretary Amateur Art Association.
It is clearly shown in this young lady's lotter that Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound will certainly euro thc sufferings
of women ; and when ono considers that Miss Gannon's letter i3
only ono of tho countless hundreds which we aro continually
Publishing- in thc newspapers of this country,
tho groat virtue of Mrs, Pinkham's medicine
must bc admitted by all ; end for thc absolute
cure of all kinds of fcmnlc ills no substituto
can possibly take its place. Women should bear
this important fact ni mind when they go into
a dru? 6toro, and bc sure not to accept anything
that is claimed to bc " juct ac rood" as Lydi:\
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, for
no other medicino for femalo iib has mado BO
many actual cures.
How Another Young Sufferer
Was Cured.
"DEAR MUS. PINCHAM: - I must

Compound has done for me. I suffered

my trouble. I felt relieved after taking- one bottle. I know of no med
icine as good as yours for female troubles."-Miss EDITH CROSS, 1C?

The East Coast Said to Bc Receding
at an Alarming Rate.
According to thc London Express
the inroads made by the sea Into thc
cast coast of England have seriously
alarmed the local authorities, who
have ineffectually spout many thou
sands of pounds in protective works,
nnd an Important conference was re
cently held at Norwich to consider this
matter.
The position of affairs is. indeed,
very serious. Lowestoft, which has
had to spend between ?59,000 and
?GO,000 on protective works, has been
especially hard hit.
The north beach has been undergo
ing a steady process of denudation by
the sea, while the Ness has all but dis
appeared, and the lighthouse has boen
at least three times removed further
Inland within living memory.
At Kirkley and Pakefield. adjacent
hamlets, houses built comparatively
recently have had to bo taken down
to prevent them toppling over Into the
ocean. At Pakefield heaps of broken
concrete He strewn on the beach, all
that remains of the protective works,
and at a wreck a few weeks before
Christmas the lifeboat could not be
launched on account of the debris.
Further south the cliffs have been
washed quite away.
A familiar instance of the min
wrought by the sea further south is
Dunwich, about five milos below South
wold.
Onoe a flourishing town with a har
bor and fishery extending to Iceland,
and in earlier times a bishop's seat.
Dunwich is now wiped out. Only a
lew crumbling walls denote the ruins
of the sole surviving church on the
cliff.
The land there used to extend miles
further out, and it is on record that
over a score of churches s*.ood where
the ocean now reigns.
Several other parishes have been
practically blotted off the face of the
earth in Norfolk by the encroaching
sea, such as Little Waxham, Whimp
well, Shtpden and Keswick.

THE GIANT'S GRAVE.
A Curiosity on the Island of Rugen
That Interests Many Visitors.
The largo Island of Rugen Iles In
?he Baltic sea northwest of tho port
ot Stettin and close to the German
mainland. It uas ,1 large summer pop
ulation, as thousands of visitors go
there for the sea baths.
The sea has played fast and loose
with Rugen and lias dug channels far
Into the Island. It has also made an
island of Rugen, which was a part of
the mainland till it v/as torn away by
the ravages cf tho waves.
In the highest northeast part of
the Island is a colloctlon of enormous
granite boulders brought thero in the
great Ice Age, and piled on one an
other In a strangely regular fashior
A passage was left partly through tho
stone mound and one of the boulders
covered lt, Completely roofing lt.
The mov i ls an object of much ln
Lcrest to victors, both on account of
tho manner In which it was formed
p.nd also because many traditions re
lating to it have been handed down
from past generations. Scientific
men say that the natural forces which
produced this stono ^eap did tho work
in the later stone period and that tho
mound must bo at least 8,000 or 10,000
years old.
Tradition says that ages ago lt was
the burial placo of a giant whose body
was laid in the passageway. The isl
anders call it the "H?nengrab," or
Giant's Grave. The story goes also
that prehistoric residents of tho island
filled the passage with sacred objects
and that toward tho end of tho eigh
teenth contury this treasure house of
ancient curiosities was despoiled and
no one ever found what had become
of the relics.
Time has done Its'work upon, the
enormous boulders. At the prosont day
the passage leading into thc interior
of the mound is partly choked by the
debris that have fallen from the rocks:
and tho rock that forms the roof has
partly slipped from the position it
once occupied. In other respects, how.
ever, the Giant's Grave is very well
preserved.
Rugen ls of great interest to arch
aeologists because it Is rich in prehis
toric remains. Fortified camps are
very numerous, most of them dating
back no further than tho days of the
expiring heathenism which disappear
ed before the advancing wavo of
Christianity.
Numerous pits In the forest Indi
cate tho sites of ancient habitations
contemporaneous with thc pilo dwell
ings which date back to the stone age.
The island, with its limestone cliffs,
its forests of beech trees descending
to the seashore, Its prehistoric relies
and the fine opportunities it offers for
a pleasant and quiet sojourn by the
sea. is one of the most Interesting and
useful islands, but its inhabitants
know well that tho sea ls constantly
biting Into the limestone of their isl
and and that It is melting beneath
their feet. Unless something is done
to protect lt the island will at some
future time entirely disappear.-Now

^ Th? Story of Lovers' Difference; J
Mabel Travers stood at the gate and
watched her lover's retreating figure
until it disappeared round a bend in
the road.
There was a discontented expres
sion on her handsome face as she
walked slowly back to the house and
entered her mother's drawing room.
Mrs. Travers looke? up from her
work as Mabel, with a little impatient
sigh, threw herself into a chair.
"Well, dear?" she said brightly.
"Well?" returned Mabel in a tone
that implied the contrary.
"Is anything tho matter?" asked her
mother. "You haven't quarreled with
Leslie, 1 suppose," she added, playfully.
"No-yes-at least, really, I'm not
quite sure," was the unexpected reply.
"Tell mo," said Mrs. Travers.
"Mother, it's horrible to marry a
poor man!"
Mrs. Travers looked at her daughter
in pained surprise.
"My darling!" she said reproachfully.
"Oh, I know I'm a wretch to say it,
and-and perhaps I don't mean it-and
yet--and yet-"
"Don't be afraid to tell mc. dear."
"Mother, Leslie and I have been hav
ing a business talk. That's what he
called lt. It was hateful!"
"But very necessary. Leslie was
wisc, darling."
"Yes-I suppose so. He said that,
as wc wero. to be married so soon
now, it was only right that I should
know exactly what he could offer me.
Oh, mother, I had no idea that Leslie
was so miserably poor! '
Mrs. Travers eyed her daughter with
a ?troubled look.
"He has never made any secret of
his income," she said.
"I know: but I didn't realize how
little it was till he went into all the
mts, and housekeeping money, and
ill the rest of it. Oh, it all se?med so
nean and sordid!"
And Mabel flung out her hands with
i little gesture of impatience.
"I am very sorry to hear you say
.hat, Mabel," said Mrs. Travers grave
y. "It-it almost makes mo afraid,"
ibo went, on hesitatingly, "you oughL
lever to have promised to marry Les
ic. Perhaps you are not the right kind
if wife for him, dear."
"Mother!"
Mrs. Travers rose from her chair
ind laid her hand lightly on the girl's
lark head.
"Tell me, child," she said, "do you
really and truly care for him?'
At this Mabel hid her face in her
aands and burst into a flood of tears.
"I-I do love him," she sobbed, "but
-but-oh, I don't know what is the
natter with me!"
And tho girl spoke truly. She knew
:hat she loved Leslie, yet she was mis
irably conscious of disappointment and
lisilluslonment That day she had
realized, for the first time, the prosaic
meaning of a limited income. She had
boen accustomed to think vaguely of
loverly as a rather romantic kind of
thing that made love all the more de
lightful. Leslie's statement of hard
.'acts had scattered all her pretty, sen
timental notions to the winds. Her
licart had sunk within her as she lis
:ened to her lover's description of their
future home-a modest villa in the
suburbs, with one maid to assist her in
lier household duties. She dreaded the
prospect of all thc petty economies
they would be obliged to practice, and
for a moment, though she hated her
self for it the next, she had felt almost
mgry with Ixsslle because he was not
i richer man. ohe loved Leslie, she
told horself again and again, and yet
Something of all this the girl con
trived 'to sob out in her mother's sym
pathetic ear, and as Mrs. Travers lis
tened, the look of perplexity on her
face gradually changed to one of re
lief.
"I think I understand." she said.
"Oh, I'm a horrid, mercenary
tvretch!" cried Mabel.
"No, I don't think you're that," re
plied her mother, quietly, "only-well,
want of money is never a pleasant
thing. We all love wealth and pros
perity, and it's perfectly natural that
i woman should want her husband to
be rich rather than poor. I don't blame
you, dear, for regretting Leslie's pover
ty; only I thought you cared for him
less because of it-"
"Oh, no, no!" cried Mabel eagerly.
"Mother, you didn't think I meant
that!"
"I was afraid at first, when you
spoke so bitterly," replied Mrs. Trav
ers gently. "But I know now I was
mistaken."
"Mother, I'm beginning to see things
more clearly," said the girl, with a
sudden brightening of her face. "I
hate poverty, but I love leslie. If
Leslie were a pauper I should groan
horribly, bul I shouldn't give him up!"
Mrs. Travers began to laugh.
"Well, it isn't as bad as that, is it?"
she returned. "After all, Leslie has
tiuite a respectable income. I admit it
might bc larger, but then, there's every
prospect of its increasing as time goes
on. Do you know, Mabel," .Mrs. Travers
continued, "you're just a little bit in
clined to exaggerate your future hus
band's straitened circumstances?"
"Perhaps I am," admitted Mabel.
"But then-"
"Oh, I know what is in your mind,"
Interrupted her mother. "Poverty is
llwaya comparative; and BO, becfVUBO
you havo been accustomed lo a big
housa and plenty cf servants, a lltitlt
house with only one servant must seem
poor and mean to you."
Mabel looked puzzled.
"You see," said Mrs. Travers, "when
you compare the big bouse with tho
little one, you're comparing your
father's position with Loslie's, and
tho one, you know is nearly thirty
years older than the other."
"Oh!" exclaimed Mabel, with start
ling emphasis. "What a silly child I
am!"
And Mrs. Travers smiled in a satis
fied way. She knew that he daugh
ter was cultivating thc proper frame of
mind.
"And I never thought of that! I
actually expected Leslie to start
where father left oi?! Why. of course,
it's unreasonable. Mother, I remem
ber now what you told ms once
things have come to you gradually.
You and father began just zs Leslie
and I am going to begin!"
"Well-no, not quite," returned Mrs.
Travers.
"But you were ali.iost as poor,
weren't you?"
Mrs. Travers laughed gaily.
"If you must know, my dear," she
said, "your father's sai.try was exactly
half the income Leslie ia making now."
"Mother," said Mabel, "you make me
more and more ashamed of myself."
"Oh, but ours was a dangerous ex
periment. You see, our income wa3
below tho minimum of discretion."
'"Anyhow, thc experiment ended
happily."
"As it happened."
Mrs. Travers blushed charmingly.
"It was a risk, though, which ?
shouldn't like you and Leslie to run."
"You think I don't l~vo Leslie as
much as you loved father, and no
wonder, after tho way I've behaved,"
said Mabel, humbly. "Mother, I wish
-I wish Leslie were as poor as father
was, so that I might show you-"
The sentence was elliptical, but
Mabel's mother understood.
BLONDE HAIR AND DARK.
ls the Color a Token of Certain Men
tal Characteristics of Wearer?
Some curious statistics relating to
hair have been collected by the school
authorities of Lille, writes thc Paris
correspondent of London Truth. Thus
the auburn-haired boys arc generally
at the head of the recitation classes
and the blonde girls learn their les
sons best. Auburn boya and blonde
lasses come out highiet as arithme
ticians. But in composition they aro
nowhere. The dark-haired children of
both sexes have thc quality of imagina
tion and in their compositions know"
how not to fatigue the attention. They
have movement, and originality. In
short, they seem, ns compared to the
auburns and blondes, born stylists.
Now that I think ol' it. Sarah Bern
hardt is, or was, auburn-haired, and
Mme. Bartet had light brown hair
twenty-five years ago-so light, as to
be almost fair. I phouhl not call thc
late Mme Jacques Stern (Croizc-tte) in
the heyday of her charms a blonde. Btu
she had a darkish shade ol' fair hair
that looked like heavy sheeny floss
silk, and tho ruddiness that one asso
ciates with auburn. Mme Samary was
also fair without being exactly a
blonde.
I dare say the auburn boys and
blonde lasses in tne Lille elementary
schools are of Flemish, that is to say
phlegmatic, race. Their brains do not
grow at once congested when they
rfffi/VflM0 rrUfj flT1 for thflt reason
they keep the mastery of the vocal
organs. In short, they continue to know
what they are about. Thc dark chil
dren arc probably of Celtic, that is to
say Gallic, origin. The blood comes
with a rush to their brains, and they
grow confused, sputter, and break
down. If they could only be taught to
remain silent for a few moments they
would be all thc better for this rush, as
the confusion would have passed away,
leaving only stimulated mental organs.
Goldsmith, who w;?s dark, always be
gan by being confused in conversa;ion. ,
O'Connell wore a black wig, but his
real hair in youth was auburn. I recol

plead in his primo speak of it as such.
His readiness was wonderful. Dut per

Theory of the Aurora.
The latest theory, and a very ingeni
ous one, writes Frank Wilbert Stokes
in the Century, is that of Untcrweger,
who supposes that cosmic other, which
11s thc celestial spheres, when met by
the earth's movement, is compressed
or condensed in front of tho earth
in thc direction of its movement, and
dilated or rarefied, on thc contrary,
behind it. This cosmic either is more
condensed before the earth than that
which is horno along in the whirl of
the world at front 33 to 44 miles per
second, and is more rarefied behind.
Tho result ls that one-half of the
earth, or the northern hemisphere,
will bc negatively electrified and the
southern haM positively elect ified
with the space regions which they are
leaving. Only the magic of the spec
troscope will probably push aside the
curtains cf this grand mystery and re
veal thc truth.
